The Greenway Walk

 Wednesday 26th November 2025.          The Greenway Walk

Today’s adventure for the Lads would take them to the market town of Ossett, a location on the outskirts of Wakefield. Once there they will stretch their legs with a leisurely stroll through the market square picking up a bite to eat on their way before joining the Greenway pathway that would eventually lead them to the outer reaches of Dewsbury.

It was a cold start to the morning, but with clear skies and a pleasant amount of sunshine it was great to be out there enjoying the fantastic views.It was  John, Derek, Brian, Colin , Dave, Glenn and Mark that ambled along engrossed in various conversations as they made their way.

They had all met up at the bus terminal in Ossett at about 11:15 making their way there by either bus or train or a combination of both. It was well after 1pm when they reached the towpath of the canal basin in Dewsbury, their intention was to have a lunchtime meal at the Leggers Pub situated close to the canal, unfortunately a notice board telling them that no food was available at that present time came as a disappointment, so after a few minutes consultation plan B was put into action, so it was off to a Cloggs cafe in the town centre just over half a mile away. 

This proved to be a good decision as the lads all agreed, the food was great and so of cause was the banter that took place at our table. Now with 2:15pm approaching it was time to consider which bus or train they would be catching in order to head homeward bound, John, Brian and Mark heading for the train station, the rest of us off to the reconfigured bus station and try to locate our appropriate bus.

Upon reflection today’s adventure was full of enjoyment with an invigorating lift to our wellbeing.

Cheers Everyone.
